We divide 18279 by 42
We want to divide 18279 by 42.

Advancing to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 42, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 1, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 18 / 42

Let's proceed to step 2:
42 goes into 18 0 times with a remainder of 18.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 18 to get 18.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 18, then repeat: 182 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
42 can be fit into 182 4 times, resulting in a remainder of 14.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 14 after subtracting 168 from 182.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 14, then repeat: 147 / 42

Going ahead to step 4:
42 goes into 147 3 times with a remainder of 21.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 43.0
The remainder is 21 after subtracting 126 from 147.
Include the next digit (9) from the dividend after 21, then repeat: 219 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
42 goes into 219 5 times with a remainder of 9.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 435.0
Deduct 210 from 219 and we're left with 9.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Step 6:
90 divided by 42 is 2 with a remainder of 6.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 435.2
If we take 84 away from 90, we end up with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 7:
If we divide 60 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 18.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 435.21
If we take 42 away from 60, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
The number 42 fits into 180 4 times, leaving a remainder of 12.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 435.214
Subtract 168 from 180 to get 12.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 120, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
42 goes into 120 2 times with a remainder of 36.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 435.2142
If we take 84 away from 120, we end up with 36.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 360, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 360 by 42, we get 8 and a remainder of 24.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 435.21428
If we take 336 away from 360, we end up with 24.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
When dividing 240 by 42, we get 5 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 435.214285
Deduct 210 from 240 and we're left with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
The number 42 fits into 300 7 times, leaving a remainder of 6.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 435.2142857
Subtracting 294 from 300 leaves us with 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 60 by 42, we get 1 and a remainder of 18.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 435.21428571
Subtract 42 from 60 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 435.21428571 with a balance of 1.8e-08.
